hi, I went to my first DH Race today and it was at the Awaba track. Thanks
to everyone that was involved with the event in anyway, it was a good day
for me and I'm sure a good day for others.
It is a demanding track, the first time I have been down such a consistently
treacherous track that required much strength to hold it on the line.
My practice runs were mostly without incident I was surprised I could
do all sections while staying on the bike.
One time going down I was zooming in the start section looking at the rocks
on the ground in front of me.. I missed seeing the A/B line sign post and soon
found myself wondering why I was traveling sideways off my bike and down in
between two rocks that were bigger than me.
My race run however didn't go as well as my practice runs and I had 2 large
accidents and some other interesting stuff happen, almost had another crash
after being cheered on by cowbell which increased my speed by 30% ???.
